This is untrue. The link provided below, gives the public from any part of the world, EMBED codes to share. This is no different than the Embed codes that allow the sharing of YouTube videos.

In fact the "livestream.com" site which provides those Embed codes promotes sharing of the stream. Please feel free to click on the link below and observe personally. A screenshot inviting access to the code is also shown.

Mr. Kenny Phillips sadly and bewlideringly - appears to be "technologically challenged." Mr. Phillips should perhaps consider a basic course to assist him in comprehending what 'freely sharing Embed codes' with the public means - Basic Tech course 101.

There is nothing unique to Radio stations or - many other Embed Codes - being made freely available by the "stream" provider. An example of another local station in Trinidad & Tobago which does so, is Power 102 fm. Others do so as well...

So, what is at the core of Mr. Phillips' concern? Is there an underlying pay-per-view agenda? If that's the case, then WACK should set it up and charge accordingly. I am among numerous pan lovers across the globe who will be willing to pay to experience Panorama 2012. Whatever the issues may be let's mend fences and move on. Both When Steel Talks and WACK are important players as far as pan is concerned. A rift between the two could only mean negative consequences to the international pan community.

I thoroughly enjoyed the South Central Small and Medium Bnads Prelims last night. The audience at Skinner Park seemed rather small though. (That's another story!) I am sure the on-line audience was rather large.

I am looking forward to continuous coverage of the competitions (hopefully with better streaming). Please WST and WACK do whatever is necessary to make it happen! Can we all just get along??

Yo, Kenny Philips looked like an idiot last night. It was pathetic. He was actually on the air crying that WST had brought too many visitors to his site. LMAO. WST is being real kind. He was really talking some dumb stuff. Embarrassing.

One of the best collection of pan and calypso videos on the internet are found on the you tube channel belonging to a member of this forum who uses the sobriquet "Is de pan in me".

Though most of the videos I've posted are my own, I've also embedded some of his videos on this forum.

When I do that, any hits I get in the video posted here are also registered as hits to the owner's video.

From a business standpoint, its a win- win situation.

If we were in the business of making money from the videos (we're not), to a potential advertiser, both of us would be credited for the video, as all of my hits would be seen as hits on his channel.

I've posted videos on you tube that got few hits until posted on WST. Overnight , they may receive two or three hundred hits, and they are immediately credited to the source video on youtube.

I've never embedded a live stream, but I believe the same also applies to streaming videos. All the hits to the embedded version would be applied to the source of the stream. In other words, hits on WST would also be credited to WACKFM.

Again, everyone should see this as a win- win situation

Like I said , I've never embedded a live video, but I believe this is how it works. If I'm wrong, then someone more knowledgeable about the technology can correct me.

You are 1000% correct Glenroy. I would add that any commercials, in this case WACK has embedded in the stream would also be available to the WST audience. That's more money for WACK. It's a win, win win situation.
